Is fatigue controlling your life?
📉 Life shrinks. Confidence fades. Everything starts to feel risky.
You're not broken. It's not “all in your mind” — and you aren’t lazy.
Your symptoms are real and physical — and many people get stuck in a prolonged protective pattern after illness or stress.
Do you recognise these?
💥 The Crash (PEM): symptoms flare or wipe you out after small effort
**************
☁️ Brain Fog: struggling to focus, think clearly, or find words
**************
😴 Unrefreshing Sleep: waking as tired as when you went to bed
**************
🛡️ The Fear: constantly second-guessing activity in case it triggers a setback
**************
If that’s you — you’re not alone.
Why You’re Not Getting Better (Even When You Rest)
The missing piece
After illness or prolonged stress, the body can remain stuck in a high-alert protection response — meaning the system keeps reacting as if it’s under threat… even when you’re trying your hardest to rest.
The cycle
Symptoms → Uncertainty / Fear → Protection Response → More Symptoms
What this creates
You can end up trapped between:
-
doing too much and crashing
-
doing less and losing confidence
-
never feeling safe enough to move forward
The goal
The goal isn’t to push through.
It’s to stabilise first — so the body can begin to heal and rebuild.

“I Finally Felt Like Myself Returning.”
“My energy stabilised, crashes eased, and the fog lifted. It wasn’t instant — but the change was unmistakable.”
— Anna, 42
Positive Improvements You'll Likely Notice First
Recovery is rarely instant - but it can become steady and measurable. Many people begin by noticing:
🌅 Waking with more energy — and a little more hope about the day.
🛡️ More confidence to do small things again without constant fear.
🧠 Clearer thinking and more mental presence.
⚡ Shorter recovery times — if you do over-reach, you bounce back faster.
🌿 Enjoying simple life again — chats, walks, hobbies — without "paying for it."

Common Questions (FAQs)
💬 Is this Graded Exercise Therapy (GET)?
No. This is not a push-through approach. We move at the speed of safety.
💬 I’ve tried everything — why is this different?
Most approaches focus on symptoms alone. We work with your nervous system to help switch off the constant ‘alarm state’ that keeps the body stuck in fatigue, pain, and brain fog.”
